THE English Parliament will met I
tomonow, when Lord Randolph
Churchill will explain that he resig 1ed
the EEchequer on principles of the
highest moment connected with lead
ing ques ions of national policy, and
not with the question OF economy

of money on war preparations; to the
reaetionary tendency in the Cabinet;
to disposition to return to the fossil

reign to the neglect OF pie dyes eol.

A SPECIAL from London says
that tomorrow Lord Churchill will
avoid opposition and give s3rt of
formal notice Of the fact by sitting be-
hind the Ministers, net returning to
his old seat below the gangwsy, the

the government has driven him forth,
and when its conduct is fully under

New and Latter House Of Israel. Its

tbs position taken by Senators
Lynn and Montedonico on the whis-
ky amendment is manly one and
deserves the commentator Of every
Democrat who, not blinded by
fauaticism, ia able to see that
they are contending sgaintt a
spirit that, if permitted free play,
will enter every mans house and die
tate what he shall eat snd wear. Pro-
hibition has been a cure to every
State that has adopted it. II fosters
and encourages deceit, lying and
perjury and begets the gross
est intempeIance of speech and
habit. To curb and restrain intern
persnce resort should be had to high
license law like that of Missouri,
which in one year has nearly quadru-
pled the tax from licenses. High
license is the thing that Messrs. Lynn
Montedonieo should contend for. It
Is rational, legal and Just.

would afford her the opportunity OF
convincing the Supreme Court that

determination.

The last sad rites in connection with
the death Of little Henry Hamilton, thu
funeral obsequies, occurred at 4 O'Clock
p. M, Friday, from the Mankato HOUSE
halls. The service was Of q brief bul
impressive character and was conducted
according TO the Episcopal ritual BY
Rev. 7. Q. Hudson. Appropriate music
was furnished bya choir consisting ol
Mrs. DIR. Wood, Miss Lizzie Sparrow
and Messrs. McGraw and Swan. The
following boys, mates Of the deceased,
acted as pail bearers: VIII Meagher,
John Smith, Charley Masters, Jay Hub
bard, Archie and Eugene Patterson.
The attendance was very large, the
number of citizens who thus showed
their love for the boy and attestsd their
sympathy for his bereaved parents
reaching far into the hundreds. AS q
mark of respect to Mr.. Hamilton, who
is past chancellor of Mankato Lodge,
the Knights of Pythias assembled at the
FREE Press corner and marched in a
body to the hotel and afterwards TO the
cemetery.
The floral offerings were of the most
extensive character, and was one of the
most beautiful displays of the kind ever
in Mankato. There was a
profusion of appropriate pieces, a num-
Der being of an especially beautiful and
design.
A long line of carriages joined in the
march to Glenwood cemetery, where
the remains Of the little fellow SO much
by all were consigned to their
asst resting place.

BOARD OF TRADE.

At the regular meeting of the Board of
Trade Monday very little business
was transacted, though many important
subjects came up for discussion.
A communication was received from
Rev. A. G. H. Overn, of this city, who
stated that there is a good chance for
Mankato to obtain the location of the
seminary to educate ministers of the COS
pei of the Norwegian Evangelical Luth-
eran Church of America. The synod of
that church comprises 10000 members
and $4,000 communicates. The seminary
is at present located at Madison, Wis,
but a more central location is desired.
The matter of selecting location has
been left to the church council, and the
trustees of the church, who viii hold a
meeting tomorrow. 1t is stated that
the synod will at once put up building
to the value of $50, 600 to $4,000. About
ten acres of land is required besides q
bonus. Messrs. Christensen and Marsh
have each offered to donate three acres
in East Mankato, and to sell the remain
ing four acres at very reasonable price.
It seems probable that Mankato can sue
coed in securing the seminary if it makes
an effort. Lacrosse has offered ten
acres of land and bonus for the school.
Mr.. Overn thinks that If Mankato should
fail to obtain this institution there is a
chance of getting the school teachers
seminary, or Normal School, of the same
church. The matter was fayorably dis
cussed, and committee consisting of
Messrs. Christensen, Geddes and M. G.
Willard appointed, to which the matter
was referred.
Mr.. Barr, from the encampment COM
mittee, made a full report. He stated
that the committee had started out with
the expectation that the expenses would
not be more than 81 200. but the total
expense had amounted to 900. There
were four reasons for this increase over
the estimated cost and the cost of pre-
vious years. They are, first, the en-
campment at New Ulm cost 81 300, 80
Col. Bobleter says, and the others must
have cost more than was reported. Sec
ond, the encampmet was of ten days
duration. Third, the nature of the
ground at the camp, making it harder to
dig. Fourth, the extreme hot weather,
requiring more ice than expected.
The receipts were as follows:

HEDIpN'TKNow IrWAsLoADED

A boy about twelve years old, named
Joseph Never, and a companion were
playing with an old musket Friday af-
ternoon, and, as their parents were alb
sent, wandered off toward the Agency
hill. They live in lower town, Waite's
addition, and had seen a good deal of the
militia who were recently encamped
here, and thought they would play SOL
der. They were not aware that the gun
was loaded, so they put cap on it and
Joseph's companion took the gun and
pulled the trigger. The musket was
loaded with shot and went of, severely
wounding young Meyer. Luckily most
of the charge passed between his legs.
However, the flesh was torn off from his
right thigh in a space six by two inches
and half an inch deep in the deepest
part. The muzzle of the gun was so
close to the bow that the flesh was burn
ed and his clothing set on fire. The
flesh was so badly scorched as to deaden
the pain, and the boy said that he did
not know he was hurt until he saw his
clothes on fire. 1t was very close call
for him. as an artery was very close to
the wound, and had it been opened he
would probably have bled to death. DR..
DAVIS was promptly summoned, and, I'M
derhis efficient care, the boy will soon re-
